The giant pythons that were originally coiled in various places in the forest to rest were alarmed and started to look for food.
Qi Yanxuan, who had already walked far away, vaguely heard the sound of giant snakes crawling and people screaming. He activated his wood-type ability to sense the area. He was afraid that he had fallen into a snake's nest. He thought about it in his heart but did not show any emotion on his face.
Suddenly he grabbed Shen Yanqing and Shen Yanshan.
The team behind him also stopped. Although they looked confused, they did not ask any questions. They just waited quietly for the leader's instructions.
Qi Yanxuan didn't say anything, but just looked up at a giant python entangled on a big tree not far away.
Everyone followed his gaze and saw a giant python as thick as a bucket coiled on a tree. Its jet-black scales were so smooth that they seemed to reflect light. The python raised its head high, its red vertical pupils staring at everyone, and its tongue spitting out.
Everyone was so frightened that they covered their mouths tightly, fearing that any sound would disturb the python. The child was so scared that as soon as he cried, his father covered his mouth. Everyone was trembling with fear, but no one dared to faint.
Before anyone could do anything, the giant python on the tree moved.
The giant python swooped down, and its huge body landed on the ground, stirring up a layer of dead leaves. Everyone felt as if they were under a spell when they saw this scene. It was not that they did not want to run, but the giant python was too fast and they had no time to react.
Just when everyone reacted and wanted to run, they saw the giant python entangled in a huge purple lightning net.
"Thunder God! It's Thunder God who comes to save us!" an old man in the crowd said excitedly.
The old people knelt down and worshiped the sky, chanting "Thunder God! Save us!"
Qi Yanxuan internally complained, "I've been mistaken for the Thunder God again. Is the Thunder God as handsome as me?" He rolled his eyes internally, but didn't show it on his face. He simply silently increased the output of his lightning abilities and tightened the lightning net.
The giant python roared in pain towards the sky and was instantly cut into pieces by the increasingly tight lightning net. Smoke sizzled from the surface of the pieces and a faint smell of meat wafted through the air.
The crowd was extremely quiet for a long time, and then someone's stomach growled, breaking the silence.
When they came to their senses, everyone was wiping the cold sweat off their face.
"I almost died here. This forest is too dangerous!" A strong man said with lingering fear, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"That's right! Fortunately, God has eyes and the Thunder God is helping us, otherwise we would have been delivering food for thousands of miles!"
Qi Yanxuan ignored the people who were still sighing, and pulled Shen Yanqing to pick up meat from the pile of broken pieces.
The people in Kaoshan Village had no mood to chat. As soon as they survived the danger, they subconsciously looked for Shen Yanqing and Qi Yanxuan, wanting to ask them what to do next, and then they saw the two of them picking up meat.
One by one, they followed, and when the crowd at the back recovered from their sighs, they saw that everyone in Kaoshan Village had returned with a piece of meat.
Seeing this, others also rushed forward to grab the meat. Although the python was ridiculously large, it was still edible. In this year of famine, let alone meat, anything non-venomous could be eaten.
While people were happily dividing the meat here, screams were heard from other places as people were being swallowed by the giant python. In their panic, a group of people happened to run towards Qi Yanxuan.
I really don’t know whether to say they are lucky or Qi Yanxuan and the others are unlucky. These people are asking for trouble and in the end they bring trouble upon themselves.
Just as Qi Yanxuan and his team were about to set out again, they heard the sound of a crowd running from behind. Everyone looked back and saw hundreds of people running towards them, followed closely by two giant pythons.
Everyone was about to cry. Just when one died, two more appeared. Could they still survive? They didn't even know if the Thunder God had left.
Qi Yanxuan was furious when he saw that group of people were about to rush into the crowd. They were going to use them as scapegoats!
He immediately activated his special powers and conjured up a huge purple lightning net to block the two teams. If they rushed over and dispersed the crowd, not to mention being eaten by the giant python, even if they were not eaten, they would be trampled to death by the chaotic crowd.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the purple lightning net. Fortunately, the Thunder God is still here! This was the thought running through everyone's minds.
As soon as he took a breath, he brought it up again, and the next moment he vomited all over the place!
Anyone who rushed onto the lightning net was instantly electrocuted to death, and the crowd had to stop. The result of stopping was that they were bitten by the giant python behind them.
Qi Yanxuan didn't react much. He had seen countless scenes in the apocalypse that were much more disgusting than this. The giant python at least swallowed people whole, while the zombies ate people raw.
Although he didn't like those people, the giant python still had to be dealt with, so he could only quietly conjure up two lightning nets to cut the giant python into pieces, and then take back his supernatural power.
The crowd finally felt relieved when they saw the giant python turned into pieces again. However, this time no one picked up the snake meat. Everyone had witnessed the two snakes eating people with their own eyes, and they felt a little nauseous, let alone eating the snake meat.
Perhaps it was because they had only been fleeing the famine for a short time, and most people still retained their humanity. After a long time, let alone eating human snake meat, they might even be able to eat human flesh.
The crowd set off again, no one caring about the few hundred people who had survived by chance. Those people were all empty-handed. What if they were robbed? So everyone was on guard against them.
Thousands of people went to find water, but only a few hundred returned. It is unknown whether the others died or ran in other directions, but it is probably difficult to survive in such a dangerous place.
night
No one dared to stop. They had not yet left the giant python area and continued walking with torches in their hands.
Shen Yanqing was particularly conspicuous as he walked in front with a flashlight.
The moment Qi Yanxuan took out the flashlight, Shen Yanqing glanced at everyone to check their reactions.
Although the people in Kaoshan Village were curious when they saw this, they didn't have any other reaction. They had seen Qi Yanxuan take many strange things along the way, so they were not surprised.
Even if others had any ideas, they wouldn't dare to do so and had to rely on them to lead the way.
Seeing him like this, Qi Yanxuan knew that he was on guard against someone with bad intentions, but he didn't care. If there was anyone who was really blind, he would just kill him directly, and then handed the flashlight to Shen Yanqing.
As a person with superpowers, the night has no effect on Qi Yanxuan, but considering that Shen Yanqing is an ordinary person, the light of the torch at night is limited. If he is hurt by mistake, he will be the one who feels sorry.
…
As the moonlight faded and the morning light grew brighter, people gradually began to hear the birds singing.
"Huh! Looks like we've walked out of the giant python area!" Shen Kui held his son in his arms and spoke in a loud voice, almost like yelling, which startled his son even in his sleep.
His wife twisted his arm hard and said, "Why are you shouting so loudly? We just came out. What if the python hears us and chases us out?"
"Okay, okay! I'll speak softly." Shen Kui answered his wife in a low voice.
“Let’s go a little further and find an open place to rest.” Shen Yanshan said as he continued to move forward.
